Chapter 43
“Shall I make a prediction?”
No, don’t. Because if that prediction doesn’t come true, you’ll do whatever it takes to make it happen.
“I’m starting to think that Secretary Baek’s mouth is going to get him in trouble sooner or later.”
“...Right...?”
Ah... Unfortunately, that prediction is 100% accurate. I’ve already noticed it, and I’ve felt it quite painfully. I don’t know how this drama will end, but if it’s my end, it will undoubtedly be because of this mouth of mine.
“Well, it’s true that it’s nice to have a meal with the CEO...”
It’s surprising even to me, but I’m sincere. Thanks to Yoon Taeo, I got to eat such expensive meat, and looking back on today, it was a really satisfying day. He probably investigated me thinking I was trying to escape after he locked me up, but unintentionally, it was like a vacation for me.
“Just because you’re eating doesn’t erase the sins, so stop it.”
“Sins...?”
“I’ll need to investigate more, but even if, for the sake of argument, you weren’t trying to run away, it’s still not without sin.”
Is it really so hard to just say, “I misunderstood”? He just keeps his pride up. He must know it too since he checked it out. Yet, Taeo still hasn’t said a word about me misunderstanding things. What is he giving up on? The bastard’s funny.
“The Vice Minister’s son situation is hard to let go of.”
